Depo-Provera is a prescription and the injection is obtained from your healthcare provider every 11 to 13 weeks. The healthcare provider will inject the synthetic hormone in the upper arm or in the buttocks. The initial injection is given within the first five days of your menstrual bleeding.
A reason your knees may be getting sore from deadlifts is because your form is not quite right. If your knees drift too far forward when deadlifting, this turns the exercise into more of a knee-dominant one, notes strength coach Mike Robertson.
If you arenât having any pain with your regular deadlifts, you form is likely pretty good with those, so from what you said it sounds like itâs just limited to the stif leg DLs. Personally, I am not a big fan of stiff leg deadlifts, since keeping your legs fairly straight tends to result in lumber flexion at the bottom of each rep when you hit sufficient depth, which can definitely place strain on your lower back.
